The Midlife Renaissance: Navigating Purpose and Professional Transitions with Chip Conley

By The Happy Startup School

What do you do when you're feeling lost in midlife?

This Friday Fireside, we'll explore how midlife can become a chrysalis—a transformative period of growth, self-discovery, and reinvention.

Joining us is Chip Conley, founder of the Modern Elder Academy and author of Learning to Love Midlife: How to Embrace What’s Next.

Together, we'll delve into the opportunities and challenges of navigating purpose and professional transitions during this pivotal stage of life.

If you’re an experienced professional or seasoned entrepreneur who’s achieved financial success but lost your sense of purpose, this conversation is for you.

Perhaps you’ve experienced “purpose drift,” or feel weighed down by the armour you’ve built to protect yourself but which no longer serves you.

Chip offers profound insights from his work and personal journey, showing how midlife is not a crisis but an opportunity to curate the rest of your life with intention, joy, and freedom.

We’ll discuss:
  • The "Great Midlife Edit" of letting go of what no longer serves you to create space for what truly matters.
  • Growing whole, not just growing old, by transforming life’s lessons into wisdom and compassion.
  • Moving from an ego-driven life to a soul-centred existence, reconnecting to something larger than ourselves.
  • Redefining success and impact by aligning work and life from the inside out—principles at the heart of both Chip’s work and the Happy Startup School.
  • Rediscovering childlike wonder, cultivating meaningful friendships, and building a new operating system for a fulfilling second act.
Chip’s reflections on longevity literacy, crystallised intelligence, and fostering social wellness are inspiring reminders that it’s never too late to press play on your life again.

Whether you’re seeking effortless impact, wanting to be paid for being you, or navigating a challenging transition, this conversation offers tools and inspiration to turn midlife into a renaissance.

Discover how to embrace midlife as a time of possibility, joy, and purpose—and start crafting a life that feels as good as it looks.
